in june, jimmy was on his silver honda motorcycle traveling north on the 7300 block of hartford road. he was less than a mile from home. according to court records an suv traveling south crossed the center line and collided head on with the bike. jimmy's wife said he suffered traumatic brain injury, a lacerated liver and broken bones. >> it was extremely scary. it was terrifying. >> do you remember anything about what happened? nothing. a baltimore city officer who witnessed the wreck arrested the 35-year-old. he's charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. a court charging document claims the officer noticed his eyes were glossy and a strong odor of alcohol came from his breath. mr. werido could not stand up on his own and kept stumbling, had slurred speech and could bare

speak. he also refused to take a breath test to determine the alcohol content in his blood. that lack of evidence concerns the family. >> if you've got nothing to hide then take a breath test. if he's got something to hide, why is he allowed to hide it. >> under maryland law a driver may refuse a breath test. mothers against drunk driving said this does impact cases against suspected drunk drivers. >> we see a lot of cases get dropped, a lot of cases because there's no evidence. so without the evidence of the breath test, without the testing that's done with it, there's not a whole lot the prosecution can do. >> police can get a subpoena for a blood test if someone is killed in an alleged drunk driving accident, but madd. >> we don't see that happen as often. >> and that's what happened here. no blood test was ordered. the state did suspend his driver's license, but according to court records police pulled him over two months later and

charged him with driving on a suspended license. mothers against drunk driving said these types of accidents raise plenty of concern. the court has tried to strengthen drunk driving laws. it has worked hard to get lawmakers to require devices in the cars of first time defenders. if a driver drinks too much the device won't let the car start. but that effort failed. we went to werido's home to talk to him about what happened. he was there but his family told us he was unwilling to come downstairs. they say this has impacted their lives as well. >> if this has told me anything, it's taught me to value life. >> his wife and mother remain by his side as he continues physical therapy at the specialty hospital. >> we're not done yet. >> jimmy's family is worried maryland's breath test law and lack of evidence will mean an

alenned drunk driver gets off. but for now they're focusing on jimmy's health. >> give me thumbs up. i love you, too. thank you. >> for the 11 news high team, i'm barry simms. >> the i team con tacked the alleged drunk driver's attorney who did not want to comment on this case until after the pending trial. 11 news will continue to follow this story. >> amazing fighter he is. >> absolutely. wish him all the best. don't go away, we have more news coming up. i'm pete gilbert. coming up in sports, the oakland raiders are here against the baltimore ravens. we'll talk about that straight

fast. the forecast for today this veterans day 2012, about as nice as it gets for november. sunshine with a high temperature near 68. we come back in a few minutes, take a look at the seven day forecast along with the rest of your week. big story this morning. the cleanup carries on in the areas hardest hit by the storm. about 130,000 homes and businesses still without power, down from a peak of 1 million. but there's growing frustration about the pace of power restoration. hundreds of residents protested out side of the headquarters of the long island power authority to voice anger. officials are promising electricity will be back on in 99% of the home by tuesday. in new jersey, 175,000 homes still without power, nearly two weeks after sandy and then last week's nor'easter. more help arrived thanks to a convoy of maryland state troopers.

we have more on that story. >> these maryland state troopers are used to answering the call for help, but this time they're headed 120 miles north to ocean county new jersey to help their law enforcement brethren there try to repair a shore in shambles. >> i think seeing destruction on tv kind of helped prepare a little bit. but until you see it in real life, that's something that's gonna hit hard. >> calls for service are up. the police officers have also been affected where they've lost their homes so we're up there supplementing the local police departments and the new jersey state police. >> troopers will be sworn in as new jersey state troopers just for the next week. they'll have police powers and assist with anything from extra patrolling to property recovery to helping utility companies turn the power back on. >> food and toiletries and diapers. >> it's another example since sandy hit, of maryland pitching in to help its northern

neighbors. these good samaritans from howard county are attempting to fill this truck with supplies and hit the road monday. >> see the pictures on the news of people who have lost everything. and so i'm just sort of one of those, okay, we gotta do something. >> it's the same sentiment that inspired 14 maryland troopers that have already been in new jersey this past week to stay there and assist this convoy of 11 headed there now. >> it's touched them to where they really wanted to help out the police departments and the people who have lost a lot and have been devastated over the storm. >> we're told maryland state police will be reimbursed for the troopers time, but money was not the motivation here. we're all told all 25 of the troopers helping out there now quickly volunteered for this assignment np wbal tv 11 news. we've had nice weather here the last few days. it will start heading colder as we head into winter.

there is an energy assistance expo saturday at baltimore city college. representatives from the baltimore city office of home land programs helped citizens apply for financial assistance and other resources to help manage their energy and utility bills. >> what most people don't know about, and i think that's what this program is about today, is that they can get assistance. don't wait until your utility is cut off. that you can actually go down and sit down with the utility company and say, look, i'm having a problem. >> officials say fewer people showed up this year which is a good thing since it means more people are learning how to manage their income better and they don't need that assistance. today's veterans day. and the va maryland health care system teamed up with a local veterans association to hold a memorial service. it was held on saturday afternoon at american legion post 22. that honored all veterans who passed away in the last year. >> this is a ceremony that will

spotlight, paula broadwelsh isn't saying. back in january she was promoting a book on the general. >> he absolutely loves the agency. i think it's a great place for him. >> broadwell, an army reserve officer, had close access to the cia director. federal agents are investigating whether she had access to his e-mails or computer. >> my understanding is that the fbi's investigation into what took place on computers there did not necessarily focus on him. that came by the information by accident. >> law enforcement and multiple u.s. sources tell nbc news that e-mails between general petraeus and paula broadwell were indicative of an extra marital affair. nbc news tried but was unable to reach paula broadwell for comment. in his resignation letter released on friday, he revealed he had showed ex-really poor judgment by engaging in an extra marital affair. law enforcement officials tell nbc news that general petraeus

is not under investigation and that they don't expect their inquiry will result in criminal charges. petraeus was the man who turned around the wars in iraq and afghanistan. >> he's a figure here that people respected. >> but an affair that could have been embarrassing for any other public servant proved to be a career-ender for the man trusted to keep the nation's secrets. brian moore, wbal tv 11 news. time 6:05, 39 degrees on tv hill. 355 million packages the post office is expecting to deliver. that's ahead in a consume r alert. abraham lincoln is ready for his new closeup. more information about the president. that's coming up. first a look outside. the sun is coming up and tony says it will be a great day. ♪

around. >> if the woman measures under 30, i add 5 inches. >> if the woman measures 30 to 33, barbara adds 4 inches to the band size. for a woman 34 and up, she adds 3 inches. now por the cup size. >> technically what you should do, measure across the fullest part of the bust. >> then subtract the band size. if the difference is one inch that's an a cup, two inches, b cup. >> it's not science. it's just somewhere to get me started. >> but a fit can vary depending on the bra, that's why barbara recommends getting a professional fitting. she cautions the back of the bra should never be hooked on the tightest clasp because it will wear faster. >> you're going to have to buy a new bra. your bra will start riding up your back. >> we all want to prolong the life of our bras, right? barbara recommends replacing them once a year. stay away from wearing a white

nutritional punch. >> it's not overpowering? >> it's delicious. it's like a dessert but healthy. the other one, for kids when they're packing their lunch, instead of peanut butter and jelly, you can make a pumpkin puree, mix it with agave syrup and use it like a jam. >> that sounds delicious. >> on whole wheat bread. then pumpkin soup is easy. you can make it from scratch. i just did vegetable broth, pumpkin, evaporated milk and spice it up how you wish. or even doing a salad and adding pumpkin seeds. >> pumpkin seeds are easy to find. lot of people still have their pumpkin seeds. >> they're a great source of plant based omega 3. >> i love this dessert at the end. so easy to do. >> literally five minutes. pretty low calorie. just mix whipped topping,

instant vanilla puding and half cup of the pumpkin. i actually od'd on the pumpkin. then adding spices and doing like a ginger snap cookie. >> you said it tastes so deck dent. >> it does. it's probably the quarter of the calories of a pumpkin pie. >> to use your pumpkin is not really practical. the cans of pumpkin are everywhere right now. >> a large 29 ounce can is only $1.99. it really cuts down on the labor of trying to coast your pumpkin. it is just pumpkin puree. >> awesome. you have a big event coming up involving ray rice. >> ray rice is coming to shop rite. i encourage everyone to come check it out and meet ray rice. >> which location? >> 37 west elsbury road.

new jersey state police. >> the troopers will be sworn in just for the next week, they'll have police powers and assist with anything from extra patr patrolling to helping utility companies turn the power back on. >> food and toiletries and diapers. >> it's another example, since sandy hit, of maryland pitching in to help its northern neighbors. these good samaritans from howard county are hoping to hit the road monday. >> see the pictures on the news of people that just lost everything. and so i'm just sort of one of those, we got to do something. >> it's the same sentiment that inspired 14 maryland state troopers that have already been in new jersey this past week to stay there and assist this convoy of 11 headed there now. >> it's touched them to where they really wanted to stay and help out the police departments and the people who have lost a lot and have been devastated over the storm. >> we're told maryland state

police will be reimbursed for the troopers' time. but of course money was not the motivation here. we're also told all 25 of the troopers helping out there now quickly volunteered for this assignment. wbal tv 11 news. >> we've been having nice weather in maryland over the last few days and it will soon start to get colder though as we head into winter. that's why baltimore city officials hosted an energy assistance expo at baltimore city community college. representatives from bge and the office of home energy programs helped citizens apply for financial assistance. all to help manage their energy and utility bills. >> what most people don't know about and i think that's what this program is about today, is that they can get assistance. don't wait until your utility is cut off. that you can go down and sit down with the utility company and say look, i'm having a problem. >> officials say fewer people showed up this year. they're saying that's a good thing. they believe it means more people are learning how to

manage their income better and don't need the assistance. this is veterans day. the maryland health care system teamed up with a local veterans organization to hold a memorial service. it was held saturday afternoon at the american legion post 22 in towsend. it honored all veterans who passed away at the maryland health care system in the last year. >> this is a ceremony that will remember those veterans that have passed away. again, trying to remember those who have given their time, their service, for our country. they might not have been the ones that have died in action. that's what we're reserving memorial day for. this is a service trying to remember veterans who have served and have now entered our ever lasting life. >> there are a number of veterans day events planned today all across the state. this morning we're getting more information about what led to the sudden rez iing anywaying of the leader of the country's

that e-mails between petraeus and broadwell were indicative of an extra marital relationship. nbc news tried but was unable to reach paula broadwell for comment. according to multiple sources the intelligence community learned of the investigation election day. president obama didn't know of it until thursday. meeting with petraeus, who offered to resign that day. obama accepted the resignation friday. some disagree with that decision. >> there's no criminal conduct involved. it's matter between him and his family. it's not conduct we encourage. it's not the best conduct. we're talking about man of great talent. >> law enforcement sources tell nbc news that general petraeus is not under investigation and they don't expect their inquiry will result in criminal charges. dan chenman, nbc news. 7:04 and 38 degrees.

in difficult times with partisan bickering. times which many ask, what would lincoln do? >> in lincoln you had a president that was eager to unify the country, dealing with a congress that had all sorts of factions. somehow lincoln had the genius to get everyone to work together. >> the united states may have come a long way from four score and seven years ago, but lincoln is still teaching its children. >> i think abraham lincoln is good because he was a big part of freedom and what h country is today. >> he didn't like slavery. >> i like his top hat. >> big man, yes, with a big hat, who still casts a long shadow over the nation he fought so hard to unite. kevin tibbles, nbc news, spring field, illinois. >> another movie coming out has 1500 fans setting up camp outside staples center in los angeles. they are waiting on the last and

>> in this morning's medical alert patients with diabetes have to keep an eye on their blood sugar. the hottest new health care tool may already be in your pocket. you need a smart device and an app. it plugs into the head phone jack. it keeps track and charts all of your results. you can e-mail all of the results to your doctor or family members. >> the greatest advantage is to help people gather and be able to analyze the information in a way that helps them look for trends and determine how their

diabetes is being managed. >> right mou it only works for the i phone. it's pending fda approval in the u.s. reading food labels can help you make better decisions about the food you eat and how you manage your diabetes. nice to see you. >> good to see you. >> we're happy to have you here. explain this. >> november's diabetes awareness month. we thought it would be a good time for education. whether you have diabetes, if you know somebody with diabetes. i get issed questions a lot of time. what should i eat? how much should i eat? i think the first thing to recognize is what foods in the diet contribute carbohydrates. what you have to worry about is blood sugar fluctuations. too high, too low. this basket i have the types of foods that will have carbohydrates. some will be better than others. things like dairy, milk and yogurt, whole grain.

i have in here oats and lentils and beans. >> these are things they want to have? >> these are things that are carbohydrates. even starchy vegetables like peas, potatoes, and fruit. here i have a big pack of sugar. obviously that's something to minimize to keep to a low and cookies. these types of processed sugars are the things to get rid of. as the complex carbohydrates like starchy vegetables and fruits and whole grains, those are the things that you want to have, but in moderation. the whole idea of a diabetic diet is carbohydrate control. so spreading those carbs throughout the day. the next thing to consider is how much carbohydrates should i be having to control my blood sugar? i'm not sure everyone can see, but i have what one serving of carbohydrates would look like. this is one slice of bread. it has approximately 15 grams of

carbohydrates. you can also look at it in terms of a fruit. a medium banana is going to have 20 grams of carbohydrates. >> okay. >> eight ounces of milk is also going to be about 15 grams of carbohydrates. >> how much do you want to have throughout the day? >> great question. for meals keep it anywhere between 30 and 670 grams. if you're having three meals a day you can have between 30 and 60 grams. but for snacks keep it to about 15 to 30. and again, that's gonna differ based on the person's activity level, the person's size, the person's age, etc. >> right. >> the next thing i wanted to discuss really quickly was the food label. so when you are shopping for foods, you want to make sure you are paying attention to labels. the first place you want to look at is the total serving size. you look up top and say the serving size. whatever it is, like on this cereal here it's one cup. the second place i look as a

diabetic is total carbohydrates. so in this example here, it's 31 grams. that's gonna be really important. like i said, you want to have about 30 to 60 per meal. so if you're having 30 in just this one food, you've got to be aware, okay, where are my carbohydrates coming from? are they coming from milk in my cereal, fruit in my cereal? you want to really get good portion control. >> all right. i think that this is probably, everybody should sit down and talk to a dietitian about what they should do. >> for sure. it's very individualized. there's a lot to learn. >> this is also good to remember for everybody in terms of portion control and keeping the energy up for everybody. >> right. exactly. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> don't go away. getting your house clean and organized for the holidays. but first events going on around
